Wishes from Councillor Mary Fragedakis
Dear Canadian Tamil Youth Alliance,
It is my pleasure to extend greetings to the guests, organizers and nominees of the Canadian Tamil Youth Alliance’s Thaalam 2014: The Ultimate Gaana Competition.
This event provides Tamil youth with well-deserved recognition for their talent and drive, and encourages them to continue to strive for success in the future. I congratulate all the nominees being showcased at this year’s competition for the hard work each of them has done. Beyond having demonstrated excellence in their respective fields, I also applaud each of them for serving as exceptional role models for Canada’s younger generation.
I hope that everyone behind CTYA feels a sense of pride in their commitment to youth development and empowerment. In facilitating the participation of Tamil youth in broader Canadian society, Canadian Tamil Youth Alliance is making a significant contribution to the social and economic development of this country. Your work provides the tools and resources that our youth need to take advantage of the range of opportunities available to them. Furthermore, in hosting other events, such as soccer tournaments, a robotics competition, poetry slams and leadership workshops, CTYA is also motivating the youth community to overcome the obstacles and challenges they commonly face in pursuing their aspirations.
I know that there is still much work to be done to ensure that all of Canada’s youth have the opportunity to realize their full potential in society, but I am confident that the Canadian Tamil Youth Alliance is playing an important role in making that happen.
Please accept my best wishes for a most enjoyable and inspirational evening.
Sincerely,
Mary Fragedakis
City Councillor
Ward 29, Toronto-Danforth
